Kind of wild they keep going.
To be fair, I think most of the more recent changes are just backporting engine upgrades and stuff from the new game they're working in. That's still a lot more effort than just saying that, but it's not like they're developing explicitly for NMS anymore.
It also let's them test the upgrades in a real environment before the new game launches, preventing another mess at launch. It's a smart use of resources, keeping people discussing how well you maintain the old game going into the new game. It's free press, along with probably more sales.
Thanks for explaining this! :)
if all it takes to keep a developer improving their game is to hype it to the moon and then turn it into a meme when it releases then maybe we should do that more often /s
forreal forreal though these game devs are the shit and I'm grateful for all the work they keep putting into this
All it takes is people with a vision.
And a willingness to lie out your ass and fraudulently market for years
I thought we Internet rabble had decreed "no mans sky is good now". Am i behind the times? Do i need go find my pitchfork?
I'm in the minority that doesn't support fraud 🤷♂️ I don't care how much time and effort they put into the game after stealing millions of dollars
I respect that.
